The Spanish FA have hit back at Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho over the Diego Costa injury row.
Mourinho insisted Costa, who has been supposedly struggling with a hamstring problem, "came back in conditions where he's not available to play for his club."
However, Spain's doctor Juan Jose Garcia Cota told IBTimes UK: "This time he [Costa] didn't say anything about the hamstring. When Costa arrived to the international team he said to us he had a minor hassle in the groin but that it was nothing important.
"He probably had played with it before for Chelsea and he didn't complain any more about it during the international duty.
"He was treated by the physios [like every other player] and didn't have any limitations when doing exercises.
"I wouldn't even say it was an injury or a problem. It was a very minor hassle that is very common in every professional footballer. He didn't even ask for treatment and didn't require a scan or anything similar."
